Reviews for the Alienware x16 R2

80% Alienware x16 R2 review
Source: Tom's Guide English EN→zh-CN
Dell's Alienware x16 R2 ($2,099 to start) is the archetypal gaming laptop, gobbling up cash and belching out frames per second. It's heavy. The battery life's not great. The fans on our review unit are as loud as the RGB lighting and at $3,199 (as configured) it's a heady investment to pour into mashing pixels together. But it's also cool (metaphorically), coupling readily customizable aesthetics with performant hardware in a sleek package that looks and feels fun. Between the honeycomb-grille patterns, extensive (excessive? never) RGB lighting and loud fans the machine screams "gamer," which isn't going to be to everyone's tastes.

The Alienware x16 R2 costs a pretty penny, but it delivers what you want in this tier. However, you'll find a few even more powerful options, mostly for more money, though the Editors’ Choice Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 9 16 stands alone on the power-per-dollar front. However, the x16 R2 is more concerned with the overall package than value (and, dare we say, even performance). Among Alienware’s gaming laptops, the m16 R2 is a better solution for most shoppers, with a portable design and less of a price premium, while the x16 R2 aims for enthusiasts. If you want the absolute best performance, you can do a bit better than this system, but we can't deny its sleek marriage of style, portability, and power to anyone with the cash to burn.

80% Alienware x16 R2 review: High-end gaming at a premium price
Source: PC World English EN→zh-CN
The Alienware x16 R2 is a polished 16-inch gaming laptop with a good-lucking design, a nice all-metal chassis with great build quality, lots of customizable LEDs, and a collection of ports smartly placed on the back of the laptop. The mechanical keyboard on our review model felt great, too. It’s also very customizable with a wide range of different CPU, GPU, RAM, and storage options, and the configuration of our review model delivered great performance with excellent cooling. There are a few weak points: You’ll find brighter displays elsewhere, and the lack of HDR support within games does feel like a shame at this high price point. Neither are deal-breakers, but they’d be nice to have upgrades on a premium gaming laptop.

80% Alienware x16 R2 review: A gaming champion with a few gaps in its armor
Source: Laptop Mag English EN→zh-CN
Alienware pumps out champions, and most of the time those champions cost thousands of dollars. The Apple-esque tax aside, the Alienware x16 R2 shows its worth with incredible performance, a clicky keyboard, long battery life, and stable cooling. However, the price gives me pause when I see a display that resembles one on a machine that costs roughly $1,800 less. No, seriously, you can get the Legion 5 Pro for under $1,400 and it features a nearly identical display (165Hz instead of 240Hz). It’s slightly dimmer but more colorful. One of the most important parts of a gaming laptop is the display, so it's sad to see that the Alienware couldn't impress with the one it offers.
